Insanely high 2098PPI OLED display from Sony

Make it transparent and build it into a contact lens and then maybe that PPI will matter.

How much is this gona set me back? Hopefully they hit the $10 mark. But seriously, I find this to be all good even though it's a bit excessive. More PPI innovation = PCs finally breaking out of that 1080p wall that has hindered us for so long. Timing seems right too... consumer grade graphics are almost ready for the upgrade too.

This is great for specialized purposes , but for the average consumer we wont be seeing this technology anytime soon. And besides a 4-5" smartphone with a display of this PPI will need at least a titan or 2 of GPU power to push all of those pixels.

I don't think that is accurate. It has the same amount of pixels that a 32" 720p monitor does. So if your graphics card runs your monitor at 720p, it can run that OLED display at 720p. 

 

Now if the 32" had the same PPI as the 0.7" display, that would cripple any GPU out there.

Perhaps its meant for a device that would use the display to actually project the image onto a larger surface, such as a micro projector?

I meant a 5" screen with a PPI of 2098 would need all of that GPU to run it

Oh sorry I read that wrong...
